Been watching a few of your videos. Beautiful scenery, so different from where I live (Australia.
One thing I've wanted is to know more about the operational side. How do you know the speed limit (is it really all track-side signs? I'd have thought the weather might at times make those difficult to see and expected an in-cab electric display on your instrument panel, for example, and what signals mean. Great to see some of it addressed here.
If I might be bold enough to offer some advice, adding that stuff make it less like watching a pretty scenery video and reminds us that you're driving a train and there are some real operational requirements you need to understand what you're doing.
Another small window with the relevant instruments displayed would make it ideal IMO.
Cheers

I'm having a hard time stopping watching if that makes sense but I cannot sit here another hour and a half. What wondrous beauty and scenery The Lord God Almighty has blessed Norway with. I live in the U. S. in the state of Illinois. We have beautiful scenery here in the U. S. But if I am ever able to travel that far I wouldn't mind touring Norway. You Norwegians have a very beautiful country and you keep it clean. We have a lot of litterbugs here in the U. S. in the big cities.

The snow cover very much helps illuminate the night very nicely. Been wondering for quite some time what the blue/green lighted screens/boards are in the longer tunnels about every 100 feet are for? For track workers or maybe emergency communications? Use to drive truck over-the-road and this night video reminds me very much of that.

I am physically disabled and do not get to travel in the ways I dream of. These videos are a gift, and I am so grateful that you share them. they're a wonderful 'escape' from my reality into a faraway land. Also the landscape of Norway is very similar to northern Canada, where I once lived

I really like your videos but this one by far was a top for me with the info you display on screen about the signals and switching, Im autistic and its hard to travel so your videos not only let me see your country but also learn while I watch.

I LOVE these videos. One small improvement would be to speed up with time-lapse instead of chopping out content. In particular, the sunset is particularly fine in this one, and I would love to see it progress as the signals change.

The quality of your graphics is really high but the way in which you pinpointed the signals you were about to explain would be classed as outstandingly good at a specialist professional level! Brava!

I watch this because it relaxes me. I have a question. I noticed before getting to this point (2: 27: 27) I noticed some lights upon a hill to the right. Is that a ski area with night skiing?

I was curious about the information run in the beginning, thinking it was a railroad function. Finally, I figured out that it was for viewer education.

I forgot to say that I love watching these videos. They help me relax at night and see a wonderful country I will probably never get to see myself.
